About this program:
An Extended Aged Care at Home (EACH) Package is a planned and coordinated package of community care services to assist a person to stay living at home, when normally they would need to receive a high level of care within a nursing facility.
Who is eligible?
People who are eligible for the EACH program have been assessed by an Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT), who will assess whether you require high-level care and if you would prefer to stay living at home. The ACAT Assessment is free.
Which Services are provided?
Case Management: Within budget and practical constraints services that may be managed for you can include: showering assistance, home care, laundry, assistance with meals, in-home respite/social outings, and minor home maintenance. Services are jointly determined by the recipient or carer along with the Case Manager through a careful care planning process.
